     @GiacomoSansoni yes it's true that HKSAR is now entirely under the laws of the mainland. If they were doing something that's illegal then they would be shut down, it's that simple.

     You proved your own claim to be false here.

     @yogthos Well, no, it's not true that the HKSAR is now entirely under the laws of the rest of the country. The new national security law introduces new, severe restrictions to freedom of speech, but the HKSAR in theory is still a different system within the same country, so it makes sense Lausan may still find there more freedom than in other parts of the PRC. This is how the collective itself talks about the national security law: https://lausan.hk/2020/hong-kongs-new-era-of-terror/

     @GiacomoSansoni HK is now entirely subject to mainland laws, so why has this website not been shut down if what you claim is true?

     @yogthos In fact that website is from the HKSAR, a region with more freedom than the rest of the PRC because of the Sino-British Joint Declaration

     @GiacomoSansoni well now you're just contradicting yourself, because you told me this media didn't exist in China
